Delirium is very exploration focused and I was tasked with the level design, and the biggest issue with crafting an exploration based game is the player getting lost. Sometimes items can be hard to find and winding corridors can be confusing. Which is why I took an approach that was more in line with modern adventure games than the more classical route some exploration based horror games offer. In Delirium, we have split the game into three levels and then split those into three sections. In level one finding the gun is the first section, then getting the door to the second hallway is the next section, then traversing the platforming section is the final section. In level two, the first section is the observation room and operating room, where you have to find the key car, the second section is the three hallway traversal, and finally the set piece platforming section. In the final level the first section is the traversal of the server room and head scientist office to open up the next section, which is the dash through the genetic engineering lab and the fight with the Mega Spider Head, finally you have to activate the lever and trigger the self destruct sequence. It was a great learning experience and reminded me that iteration is very important, the prototype versions saw some heavy editing after Vertical Slice, as it made the game come across as more of an office building than a laboratory.
